Now I understand the contest better. The best I could have done was 1/12 Anna, but I don't think I even own that coin, anymore. In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

The fault must be mine. That's the danger of having a lawyer design a contest.

Criteria.. 1- A coin that was or still is in general circulation dated pre-2000 (1999 or earlier-no limit) 2- Only round coins.. 3- A mintage of 20 million or more.(If it's an ancient just the fact it exists counts  ) 4- Latin based script 5- Must have a denomination number greater than 1...Or a fraction.(Ancients dont usually have a denomination so criteria no gold) 6- Once a country has been posted it cannot be used again.(Ancients the mintmark will depict the country) Points... 1-Number of vowels used (The vowel must be written correctly V used as a U does not count) No horizontally or vertically written words..They must follow the circular shape of the coin 1 POINT = 1 vowel 2-Depicts a horse (Doesn't matter how many only one counts) = 5 POINTS max 3-Depicts a star (Doesn't matter how many only one counts) = 2 POINTS max 4-Same date written on both sides of coin = 2 POINTS 5-Silver content 80% or more = 2 POINTS OP coin..

That's the danger of having a lawyer design a contest. Okay, it makes much more sense now.  This next one will be a challenge... There are so many possibilities... Congrats, Palouche! In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020
